Creating CSV files

[teenymunchkins]

Hi

I have been asked if I can produce a CSV file when I open up the dropship site.  Was going to have a play this morning but I don't know how to do it ... can someone point me in the right direction?  I have looked in easy populate but there is nothing there that says .csv files 

Thanks

If you have your info in an Excel spreadsheet already, I believe you can just use the 'Save As' option from the File Menu (if using Excel 2007 click the Office button and then 'Save As').

In the 'Save As Type' drop down list at the bottom of the dialogue box you can then choose the CSV (Comma Delimited) option.

Then just choose where you want to save it and what you want to call it.

NOTE: Whether you need to do anything other than this for what you need, I am not sure, but I am sure someone else on here will be able to let you know.

Thanks, I didn't see this replyu.

I don't have it in Excel already I'm afraid.  I can see where you can create a .txt file, can I do something with that??

Oooo think I might have done it!!

I downloaded a completed tab delimited .txt file to excel and saved it as a .csv 

Hope it works

Remember This - If you have downloaded a complete file REMEMBER to delete the line with your cost price or your customers will know what you paid for the items.

REMEMBER to delete the line with your cost price

Very good point!

I can't see anywhere that has sort of info but come to think of it, I don't have my cost price on the site anyway
